Wet Ceiling

Philippines
July 18, 2018 1:39pm CST
Woke up late and shocked when the tenant told me that her bulb starts having smoke that she turned it off. We tried to call for an electrician. One, already has a different no. which i didn't know, second the other one didn't came as requested. So I try to remedy the situation even though the problem remains. I've been seriously having this steepness nights on what to do with them. I don't want to see their businesses burn.

Don't just turn off the light switch, you have to turn off the main switch of the fuse box or the circuit breaker. Have your roof checked, I know it rained so hard and non-stop in our area, those little floor drips or wet ceiling might actually be a flooded ceiling. Yes call a qualified electrician to check your electrical wiring. If you plan or know how to fix it again see to it that the main switch is turned off.

Hope you'll get an electrician and the issue will be fixed very soon. This will really be shocking for me if I see smokes from the bulb.
